The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) is a prominent intergovernmental organisation headquartered in Paris, France. Founded in 1961, the OECD plays a crucial role in promoting policies that improve the economic and social well-being of people worldwide. With a focus on member countries across Europe, North America, and the Asia-Pacific region, the OECD engages in extensive research and analysis in various sectors, including education, health, and environmental sustainability. The organisation is renowned for its unique data-driven insights and policy recommendations, which are instrumental in shaping global economic strategies. Notable achievements include the development of the OECD Better Life Index and the OECD Economic Outlook, both of which provide valuable frameworks for understanding and enhancing quality of life. As a leader in international economic cooperation, the OECD continues to influence policy-making and foster sustainable growth across its member nations.
How does Oecd's carbon action stack up? DitchCarbon scores companies based on their carbon action and commitment to reducing emissions. Read about our methodology to learn more.
Mean score of companies in the Other Services industry. Comparing a company's score to the industry average can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
Oecd's score of 21 is higher than 63% of the industry. This can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
As of the latest available data, the OECD reported CO2 emissions from electricity production of approximately 376,546.17 kg CO2e per GWh in 2018 and about 374,235.02 kg CO2e per GWh in 2019. These figures indicate a slight reduction in emissions intensity over the two years. However, the OECD has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor have they set formal reduction targets or climate pledges. The OECD's commitment to addressing climate change is evident through its focus on sustainable development goals, although specific reduction initiatives or targets have not been outlined. The organisation continues to promote policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions and enhancing environmental sustainability across member countries.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Oecd is not committed to any reduction initiatives we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
